RSC Adv 2024; 14:4448-4455. [PMID: 38312720 PMCID: PMC10835760 DOI: 10.1039/d3ra08764f] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/22/2023] [Accepted: 01/19/2024] [Indexed: 02/06/2024] Open
Abstract
A novel octaurea-calix[4]tube (UC4T) has been synthesized in three steps from the original Beer's p-tert-butylcalix[4]tube ionophore. In a polar solvent (DMSO-d6), UC4T rapidly interconverts between two identical conformations with C2v symmetry for the two calix[4]arene subunits. However, in a less polar solvent mixture (CDCl3/DMSO-d6, 98 : 2), UC4T adopts a highly distorted asymmetric structure, which hinders the formation of typical tetraurea calix[4]arene capsular assemblies. The complexation of potassium (or barium) cations inside the dioxyethylene ionophoric binding site of UC4T triggers a C2v to C4v symmetry rearrangement of the two calix[4]arene subunits. This rearrangement leads to the formation of a transient capsular dimeric species observed in solution upon the addition of KI or BaCl2·2H2O to a solution (CDCl3/DMSO-d6, 98 : 2) of the macrocycle. X-ray studies confirm UC4T's ability to adopt different asymmetric conformations, depending on its interactions with solvent molecules. Two distinct crystal forms (α and β) of UC4T have been obtained, each displaying divergent calix[4]arene subunits with pinched-cone conformations. These conformations exhibit distinctive head-to-tail (α) or head-to-head/tail-to-tail (β) orientations of the ureido groups, which are involved in hydrogen bonding with solvent molecules. Notably, the pseudo-capsular 1D supramolecular polymeric arrays observed in the β form of UC4T assemble to create large parallel solvent channels.

Abstract
In this work, the ability of several bis-viologen axles to thread a series of heteroditopic tris(N-phenylureido)calix[6]arene wheels to give interwoven supramolecular complexes to the [3]pseudorotaxane type was studied. The unidirectionality of the threading process inside these nonsymmetric wheels allows the formation of highly preorganised [3]pseudorotaxane and [3]rotaxane species in which the macrocycles phenylureido moieties, functionalised with either ester, carboxylic, or hydroxymethyl groups, are facing each other. As verified by NMR and semiempirical computational studies, these latter compounds possess the correct spatial arrangement of their subcomponents, which could lead, in principle, upon proper bridging reaction, to the realisation of upper-to-upper molecular capsules that are based on calix[6]arene derivatives.

Abstract
The pivotal role played by potassium ions in the noncovalent synthesis of discrete porphyrin-calixarene nanostructures has been examined. The flattened-cone conformation adopted by the two cavities of octa-cationic calix[4]tube C4T was found to prevent the formation of complexes with well-defined stoichiometry between this novel water-soluble calixarene and the tetra-anionic phenylsulfonate porphyrin CuTPPS. Conversely, preorganization of C4T into a C4v-symmetrical scaffold, triggered by potassium ion encapsulation (C4T@K+), allowed us to carry out an efficient hierarchical self-assembly process leading to 2D and 3D nanostructures. The stepwise formation of discrete CuTPPS/C4T@K+ noncovalent assemblies, containing up to 33 molecular elements, was conveniently monitored by UV/vis spectroscopy by following the absorbance of the porphyrin Soret band.

Abstract
A series of novel calixarene-based tubes comprising different numbers of silatrane anchoring groups was synthesized. For the first time, a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) derived from calixtubes was formed on a SiO2 surface. The formation of the SAM was confirmed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive X-ray analysis, and contact angle measurements. Modification of the sensitive surface of a conventional ion-selective field effect transistor (ISFET) with the afforded SAM resulted in the production of a KI-sensitive sensor. This sensor selectively determined KI compare to different alkali metal iodides: NaI, RbI, CsI; also investigation of different potassium salts (acetate, iodide, nitrate, chloride, dihydrophosphate, perchlorate) showed the highest response to KI. This sensor was successfully employed to determine the presence of KI in artificial saliva with a limit of detection of ~3 × 10-8 М. In addition, it was found that the detection limit of the sensor could be increased by combining the sensor with a microfluidic system. Due to the obtained sensor sensitivity and its ability to detect KI in artificial saliva, we could conclude that this sensor shows great potential for application in the determination of KI in different media, such as the human body and in biological liquids, such as saliva or urine.

Abstract
Previous work on a ditopic receptor based on a tripodal phosphine oxide core demonstrated preferential enhancement of bromide binding over chloride or iodide in the presence of lithium cation. Current studies on an elongated receptor provide evidence that preferential bromide binding enhancement in the presence of lithium cation is common to this receptor class in general, and that lengthening of the receptor results in an overall increase in halide association. Furthermore, the extended receptor shows a strong preference for Li+ binding in solution.
